a Really Scary Experience Posted: 10-22-04 10:59am
It was in the early morning I couldnt
really sleep, my head started getting kind
of a numb tingely feeling and then 10
seconds later it came full force of
numbness in my head then my whole body got
numb too with a tingely feeling, I was
paralyzed I couldnt move at all or say
anything my body went from numb to like
this strong pulling force on my whole
body, I know I wanted to wake up my
husband desperately and he was right next
to me but I just couldnt speak or move
then after like 30 seconds it stopped. Im
so scared about it I dont know if it could
be some type of seizure. If anyone had
this experience before or know what it is
please reply.

This does sound so scary!! I think you
should call the doctor and get it checked
out! There are seizures like that but
there is also other conditions including
some sleep disorders that can cause
this!
I hope you figure it out. It must have
been so scary! How did you feel after?
Seizures often cause you to feel bad
after...

I didnt feel any pain after what happened,
but like an hour later I was I went back
to sleep and when I woke up my lip and
check where kind of numb and tingely for
like several seconds. I also forgot to
put that I did have this before but in
dreams and I would wake up afterwards but
this one was so intence and I was awake in
bed when it happend.

Have you talked to a doctor yet? In
either case there are tests that can show
what is going on, maybe! Sleep paralysis
does sound like what you describe.
